About Wanderings

Wanderings is a location tracking application that shows a heatmap of where
you've been. It is low effort; just keep the
Wanderings iPhone App
running in the background on your phone and it will record where you are
occasionally using GPS and other location methods. Then
come to the website to see a heatmap of where you
have been. We hope to run Wanderings for years.

Wanderings is privacy friendly; we don't keep a copy of your location
data on our own server. Your locations are only stored in iCloud
(requiring your password to access) and cached in your local browser for
display. (In addition the Mapbox map service we use
collects telemetry data,
which you can disable.)
The location tracker on the iPhone is designed to have very
low impact on your battery; a few percent a day at most.
We do not currently have an Android app.

Data Import & Export

Google Timeline exports (via Google Takeout), Strava GPX, OpenPaths JSON, and
GeoJSON data with a "ts" property (such as our exports). If
you want support for another import format please
